Happy Birthday, Cristina Peri Rossi! May your day be as delightfully chaotic and wonderfully absurd as "La nave de los locos." Your words have sailed us through seas of laughter, love, and existential pondering—proving once again that indeed "El amor es una droga dura," but thankfully one without side effects (except perhaps an addiction to great literature).From the poetic solitude in "Solitario de amor" to your brilliant explorations of human folly aboard the Ship of Fools, you've gifted readers countless memorable moments. Here's hoping this birthday brings you joy worthy of a bestselling novel—and cake that's sweeter than literary acclaim!
